Just Another Night

Gojyo lifted his head and slammed it back down on the pillow. He was horny. They'd arrived in this town a few hours ago, and as usual, Gojyo had went on the prowl for a woman. It was almost like a game. The flirting, the seduction, the convincing, and finally, the sex. A quick, nasty fuck behind a bar, his cock buried to the hilt inside a hot, wet pussy, pounding into her until they both came their brains out, that was what he needed. That was what he hadn't found. It helped, sometimes it helped to keep the longing at bay. Well, the physical longing, anyway. The emotional longing was harder to smother. The longing for a certain dark haired, cool eyed demon who just happened to be his best friend.

Cho Hakkai. Just the thought of him, the picture of his face in his mind, was enough to bring his erection from half-mast to full on ready for anything hardness. When the thoughts had first begun to cross his mind, a few months after Hakkai had moved in with him, he'd tried to ignore them, to will them away. He wasn't gay, he'd never even thought about being with another man before. But this wasn't just another man. This was Hakkai. Hakkai took care of him, Hakkai worried over him, Hakkai cared whether Gojyo lived or died. So he gave up on trying to make the thoughts go away, and just concentrated on making sure his best buddy had no idea that he was Gojyo's favorite masturbation material. And speaking of masturbation...

Dammit, he said to himself, and looked over at the bed across from him. Goku lay there, head back, snoring, sound asleep. Good enough, because Gojyo wouldn't be able to rest until he'd gotten some relief. He grasped the waistband of his shorts and shoved them down, his hard-on springing free, tenting the sheet that was spread over him. Gojyo wrapped one long fingered hand around the base and stroked upward smoothly toward the head, then back down, closing his own eyes and letting a picture unfold in the darkness. Hakkai was sitting on the edge of his bed, watching him as he stroked himself, his lips parted slightly, and he was unbuttoning his own pants, reaching inside to rub over his own manhood, never taking his eyes off Gojyo as he did it, and there it was, his gorgeous cock. Long and slim, and those hands...god, those hands that could either kill or heal with equal skill were fondling it, and Gojyo could see wetness on the tip...

"Oh yeah," Gojyo whispered on a ragged breath, his hand moving up and down faster on his cock at the picture forming in his mind. "Fuck!" he muttered, beginning to rock his hips up and down, pushing his cock into his tight fist, rubbing his thumb over the head and spreading the slick fluid over the sensitive tip.

So involved was he in his fantasy that he hadn't heard the creak of the other bed, didn't hear the almost silent footsteps approaching him. The icy water that suddenly drenched him from chest to thighs, however, snapped him fully back to reality. He leaped out of bed with a roar, his erection shrinking and glared at the culprit. "What's the big idea? Why the hell did you do that for?"

Goku stood there glaring right back at him, holding the pitcher he had used to interrupt Gojyo's happy time. "Cold water to cool down a pervy water sprite!" he shot back. "I'm sick of you waking me up when you do...that!"

"Waking you...what the...how..." Gojyo sputtered. "I've seen you walk, eat, and fucking fight in your sleep! How does me jerking off wake you up?"

"Because you can't keep it quiet! All I hear is fap fap fap oh yeah, that's it, fap fap FAP!"

"You stupid nosy little monkey, I'll fap you!"

"Oh, you'd like that, wouldn't you, pervert?" Goku yelled back.

"That's it, one more word and I'm kicking your ass!"

"Bring it on, kappa!" Goku snarled, dropping the pitcher and doubling his fists.

Gojyo started for him, intending on teaching him a little lesson about discretion and giving other people their privacy. However, the water Goku had thrown on him had dripped down his legs to his feet while he had been standing there, and on his first step forward, he slipped. Out of instinct he grabbed Goku to try and keep his balance, and only managed to take them both to the floor with a crash that shook the walls.

"Gross!" Goku cried. "You're naked, oh gross, get off me! Your thing is touching me!"

"I'm fucking trying, stop squirming!"

"Hurry up, you're all wet, too, asshole!"

"Whose fault is that, huh? Dumbass monkey!"

"Stop calling me monkey, waterbug!"

The sound of the door to their room being thrown open caused both of them to cease their struggles and look up. Gojyo groaned at the sight of Sanzo standing there glowering at them both, the vein in his temple pulsing. Hakkai stood behind him, wearing an amused smile on his face.

"Ah, have we interrupted something?" Hakkai asked.

Gojyo suddenly realized how this must look. Him naked and wet, on top of Goku, with one arm pinned and their legs tangled together. He blushed, not just his face but his entire body flaming with embarrassment. "Uh, it's not what it looks like."

"It's exactly what it looks like!" Goku yelled.

"What the hell? NO, IT'S NOT! Shutup, Goku!" Was the monkey planning on trying to say that Gojyo had been coming on to him or something?

Of course Goku didn't shutup. "This son of a bitch was whacking off again and woke me up, so I threw water on him to cool him down!"

"Bite me, Goku," Gojyo snapped, and howled as Goku promptly turned his head and sank his teeth into Goku's arm almost hard enough to draw blood. "Let go let go LET GO!"

"Shutup!" Sanzo growled. "Goku, let him go or I'll shoot you both."

Gojyo heaved a sigh of relief when Goku released his arm, growling at the sight of the teeth marks. "Do monkeys carry rabies?" he asked no one in particular, and yelped when Goku kneed him in the upper thigh. "Watch the nuts, you idiot!"

"Like I want any part of me touching your nuts! Get off me!"

"Oh my," Hakkai said, raising his hand to conceal a small smile. "I suggest we all quiet down before the innkeeper asks us to leave."

"He'd better not," Sanzo grouched. "He can throw these two out on the street for all I care, but I'm not going anywhere."

Gojyo finally managed to untangle his limbs from Goku's and stalked back to his bed, muttering obsenities under his breath. He flopped down, and immediately leaped back up. He'd nearly forgotten the unasked-for shower that had started all this. "My fucking bed is soaked! Goku, you did this, so you're sleeping on the floor! I'll take your bed."

"Like hell you are! I'm not giving up my bed, and you just better ask the innkeeper for another room! I don't wanna sleep in the same room with fap fap fap! Why do you have to do it so much anyway?"

"Real men have needs, you brainless wonder. Maybe if your balls ever drop you'll understand that."

"Don't you even think about my balls, cockroach!"

"Enough of your annoying bickering!" Sanzo put a hand to his forehead. "You better settle this now so I can get back to sleep!"

"I have a suggestion," Hakkai said. "Why doesn't Goku take my bed and I'll stay in here with Gojyo?"

Gojyo went silent. Hakkai? Stay in here with me? When I had just been jerking off to a fantasy version of Hakkai? Well, but he doesn't know that, though, so say something! "Good idea," was all he could manage.

"No," Sanzo said in a flat voice.

"Aw, c'mon, please, Sanzo? Let us trade rooms, please please please?" Goku stood in front of Sanzo, giving him that wide-eyed, pleading look.

"No."

"It might be wise to separate them for the night, Sanzo," Hakkai said. "We wouldn't want another fight to break out."

Sanzo sighed. "Whatever. You three do what you want. I'm going back to bed, and God help anyone who wakes me up again." With that he turned and headed down the hall to his room.

"All right!" Goku said, pumping his fist in the air. "No being woken up by gross sounds anymore...hey, wait. If Gojyo's bed is wet, where are you gonna sleep, Hakkai?"

"I'm sure Gojyo and I can figure something out. Go on, Goku." He smiled. "no need to disturb Hakkaru, that is, if you don't mind sharing a pillow with him?"

"No, it's cool. Thanks, Hakkai!" Gojyo ran out of the room and down the hall, catching up to Sanzo. "Hey, Sanzo, is there anything left over from dinner?"

"No."

"But I'm hungry! Can you go find me a meatbun or something?"

"Shutup!"

"But really, I'm...OUCH! That fan hurts, you know!"

"That's why I did it."

Gojyo snickered, and Hakkai shook his head as he closed the door, cutting off the sounds of Goku whining and Sanzo grouching. "Well. Shall we get back to sleep, Gojyo?"

As much as Gojyo hated to admit it, the monkey had had a point with his last question. Where was Hakkai going to sleep? "Uh...how? I don't wanna put you on the floor, but I don't wanna sleep there either."

Hakkai cast an eye on Goku's bed, the dry one. "These beds are larger than most of those in other inns. Both of us should be able to fit comfortably, don't you think?"

Gojyo's head snapped up in surprise. "What? Us...two guys...in one bed? No way."

"Whyever not, Gojyo? We've all slept next to each other out on the road when there were no inns close by. This is no different. Though of course, you may want to put something on first."

Gojyo had almost forgotten that he was naked. "Shit!" He stalked to the small bathroom for a towel to dry off with, then grabbed his jeans from the floor of the bedroom and yanked them on. "Fine, Hakkai, you win. We'll share the bed. But if you tell anyone..."

"I do know the meaning of discretion, Gojyo. Besides, what makes you think I want my reputation ruined?"

"Your reputation? Why you..." He stopped when he heard Hakkai's light chuckle. His friend's subtle sense of humor still managed to surprise him after all these years. "I can't believe I've got a dude sleeping in my bed again. Wasn't once enough?" He looked up to see Hakkai had already laid down on the side closest to the wall, and after a moments hesitation, he crawled in beside him, trying not to get too close, trying to pretend that the secret part of him wanted to be too close.

"Goodnight, Gojyo. Sleep well."

"Yeah yeah, goodnight, Hakkai." Gojyo closed his eyes, turning on his side away from Hakkai, trying to sleep. There was one problem, however. Now that he was warm and dry and the argument was over...he realized he was still horny. He was still horny and Hakkai was inches away from him. In the same bed. In the dark. And damned if he wasn't getting a hard-on again. This is gonna be a loooong night.
